Happy Birthday To Me

This past Saturday was my birthday. I always feel conflicted when it comes to my birthday. I like receiving presents and being taken out to dinner. But I've never been a fan of getting older. Although I usually get mistaken for younger than I actually, thinking about where I am in my life and what I had hoped to have accomplished at this point and what I still would like to do overwhelms me. I had a good birthday this year. It was a quiet day. I started the day by sleeping in. I received some very nice presents. I baked some delicious chocolate cupcakes. My sisters got me dinner at from one of my favorite restaurants and got me some chocolate ice cream. We had other family events, aside from my birthday, happening this weekend so there was a lot of visitors from out of town. Over all I had a good day. Maybe next year will be even better. How do you usually spend your birthday? Do you have any big plans for your upcoming birthday or did you just celebrate?
